One of the greatest joys in life is to give life. Expectant
mothers worry about a great many things, to include names
for their child, how to raise their child, even college.
All of this can and many times does occur from the moment
of conception. What many mothers may be unaware of is
that manufacturers of synthetic toxins have no documented
concern for your health or that of your unborn child.
A warning on the label of a pesticide that you may have
purchased does little to reverse the environmental effects
of the pesticide residue already inside your home or,
sadly enough, already inside your body.

Research
has shown the pesticides appear in mother's milk (Rachel
Carson, Silent Spring 1962), (Jaipur, timesofindia.indiattimes.com
January 5, 2009). Known carcinogenic organochlorine pesticides
such as DDT appear in the blood and milk of lactating
mothers.

According to a study by eap.mcgill.ca, Fat soluble materials
such as the organochlorines, DDT and chlordane, can be
stored for long periods of time in maternal body fat.
Body fat mobilization and turnover are increased during
lactation and fat soluble substances may also be mobilized.
Fat soluble substances may be released from fat during
weight loss, which typically occurs during lactation."

An article by Ruth M. Heifetz and Sharon S. Taylor revealed
that human milk gets contaminated with pesticides such
as organochlorines, DDT and chlordane since these chemicals
can be stored for long periods of time in maternal body
fat.

In another scientific study conducted by the Extension
Toxicology Network, Pyrethroids 1994, the most common
pesticides on the market contains pyrethroids, many of
which are either known or suspected carcinogens. According
to the study, the most severe cases of poisoning involves
infants and small children that cannot metabolize and
excrete pyrethroids through liver functions leading to
paralysis, muscle fibrillation, diarrhea and death due
to respiratory failure.

Symptoms of acute exposure in infants last only two days
(Gary, infant death, and anaphylactic respiratory distress).
Tests have shown latent traces of pyrethroids in muscle
and fatty tissue even after limited exposure, such as
putting a toy or food that has fallen in a treated area
into a child's mouth, or absorbing the product through
the skin from a treatment area.

Pesticide manufacturers go to great lengths to distance
themselves from the harm caused to unborn children from
the mother's direct or indirect exposure to their pesticides.
In some instances, the pesticide industry attempts to
blame birth defects on the mother's exposure to first,
second or even third hand cigarette smoke (OpEdNews, Jon
Jonik - "Pesticide Industry War on Mothers "January 22,
2009). This is so far reaching that no medical professional
has ever publicly agreed with such wild and bizarre contentions
made by the toxin manufacturers. However, what is at stake
is billions of dollars in legal claims, punitive and exemplary
damages, and healthcare issues for children with birth
defects traceable to pesticides and particularly, a specific
active ingredient.

A recent study by scientists at Rutgers University, in
Piscataway, New Jersey, found that lingering (synthetic)
pesticide residue on toys and other surfaces in a room
that has been treated is likely to cause a child between
the ages of three and six to ingest a daily does of synthetic
pesticides that is sixty-nine times higher than the dose
the EPA considers "safe." If the EPA considers a synthetic
toxin safe in any dosage, a product designed to kill living
organisms indiscriminately, then the EPA should be disbanded.

For younger children who put toys in their mouths, the
dose could be as much as 211 times higher, and in a November
1997 report, research showed that children who developed
brain tumors were twice as likely to have had prenatal
exposure to flea-and-tick foggers and sprays containing
pyrethroids.

In August 1997, researcher Jorma Jyrkkanen points out
that the carcinogenicity of pesticide and chemical residues
found in mothers' milk were noted by various researchers,
and determined their probable contamination route, source
and carcinogenic effects. It was concluded that carcinogens
were present and these were probably causing cancers in
humans. The main source of exposure in women was diet
but occupational exposure may play a role for many. The
primary candidate cancers for pesticidal origin are melanoma,
lymphatic cancers, blood cancers and multiple myeloma.
Other cancers also have a highly suggestive correlation
with pesticide carcinogenesis, including breast cancer.
Articles were discussed which suggest that synergism and
immune system compromise may increase mortality. The concept
of safe level was found to be based on erroneous arguments,
which do not represent the real world. Inerts and their
contaminants have a potential to explain a large component
of carcinogenicity but have not been researched because
they have been in use covertly. Epidemiology is largely
after the fact of exposure and can lead to the conclusion
that a product is unsafe after it has been used for a
long time, thereby endangering many populations. It was
found that most carcinogens in Mother's Milk were also
endocrine and reproductive disruptors with hormonal impacts
and involvement in development and carcinogenesis. Banning
carcinogens at the source and using alternatives to pesticides
are discussed as options to use of carcinogenic pesticides.

As an expectant mother and for father's to be, the chances
of you interacting with pesticides outside your home is
great as even traces of pesticides have been found in
Antarctica. However, it is inside your home where the
greatest dermal contact and inhalation contact through
volatilization of pesticide gases occur because residential
pest control has the least amount of governmental regulation
in comparison to commercial establishments, schools, and
restaurants. Thus, as your new pest management agency,
we establish better guidelines that eliminate all dangers
from pesticide poisoning, control insects and rodents
without toxins, and help you to keep your home as toxin
free as possible.

We will terminate your existing pest control company
for you if they have ever sprayed a single drop of
toxin on your property;

We will decontaminate as much of your home as possible
and remove as much toxic pesticide residue as possible;

We keep keep unsanitary disease-causing insects
away from you, your baby, and your family with our
all-natural, non-toxic products that are effective
at controlling all the same insect pests and "Safe
Around Children and Pets";

We suggest that you do not purchase or handle synthetic
pesticides or other toxic chemicals;

If a member of your family handles synthetic pesticides
occupationally or otherwise, avoid contact with their
clothes and have them wash their own clothes at high
temperatures; always separate contaminated clothes
from any of your garments or infant garments;

If you have school-age children, be certain to keep
them home on days when the school may apply pesticides
or herbicides to school property;

If you have synthetic pesticides in your home or
garage, we will remove them and dispose of them for
you at no charge.
